Big XII Championship: ISU vs BU Predictions

[andymhallman]

I'm not as confident we can beat Baylor given how they've just gone through the #2 and #3 seeds like a buzzsaw. I knew Baylor was going to be a tough team to beat, but geesh, I didn't expect this.

 

[Cy83ag]

We win by 10-15 points and earn a 2 seed for the tournament!

 

[GMackey32]

89-72. Full hearts, clear eyes, Bears lose.

FIFY

Great game between two great teams

Baylor shut down Oklahoma by taking away their 3pt shooting, daring them to score inside.

Baylor shut down Texas by taking away the interior, daring them to take outside shots.

What's Baylor going to do when they have to shut down both our interior and 3pt shooting?

Heslip. Gotta keep him from being too open.

Heslip. Gotta keep him from being too open.

Agreed. Heslip is just killing Texas right now. 6-11 from three-point range. You can't let him do that.

Baylor was nasty tonight need all clone fans in the building to give the guys a boost.

We are totally in-synch. ISU 88-74

The last time baylor was in our house we beat the **** out of them. Hilton South will yield similar results.

 

[RayShimley]

Doubt Fred is getting much sleep tonight drawing up ways to beat that zone. I like our chances with The Mayor at the helm.

Baylor is 7-1 on a Neutral Court with wins over Colorado, Kentucky, Oklahoma, and Texas.

I'm on the road so I can't see on TV but are any Baylor fans at this game? Tomorrow can't be too much better. It's going to almost be a home game for us tomorrow.

Its a bummer for ISU that they have to play Baylor instead of Texas. Beating Embiid-less Kansas and second tier Baylor might not be enough to get ISU up to a solid #3 seed. Getting a win over Texas would have been more impressive. It will be interesting to see how the results play out over the next few days and how it impacts Sunday.

Heslip. Gotta keep him from being too open.

i think monte needs to guard him. monte is your best defender imo

yeah, Baylor gets not cred... keep thinking that... Tell the team how easy it will be.

 

[RayShimley]

Monte will definitely be on Heslip.

 

[huntt26]

They will zone us because we really struggled with the zone at their place. Gotta break the zone by hitting our open looks and I'll like our chances.

Baylor is 7-1 on a Neutral Court with wins over Colorado, Kentucky, Oklahoma, and Texas.

Too bad this won't be a neutral court. This will be a road game for Baylor. Hilton South!

 

[HFCS]

Baylor is 7-1 on a Neutral Court with wins over Colorado, Kentucky, Oklahoma, and Texas.

Good idea to base it on neutral court record, ISU will be national champion with that method. Or we could go with the record of our coaches against each other.
